Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures

v3:
 - Take up Johannes' suggestion of just skip the !usage case and
   fix test_memcontrol selftest to fix the rests of the min/low
   failures.

The test_memcontrol selftest consistently fails its test_memcg_low
sub-test and sporadically fails its test_memcg_min sub-test. This
patchset fixes the test_memcg_min and test_memcg_low failures by
skipping the !usage case in shrink_node_memcgs() and adjust the
test_memcontrol selftest to fix other causes of the test failures.

Note that I decide not to use the suggested mem_cgroup_usage() call
as it is a real function call defined in mm/memcontrol.c which is not
available if CONFIG_MEMCG isn't defined.

Waiman Long (2):
  mm/vmscan: Skip memcg with !usage in shrink_node_memcgs()
  selftests: memcg: Increase error tolerance of child memory.current
    check in test_memcg_protection()
